How to detect the user that triggered the Bot?

I have an bot/automation that's triggered when an update is made and it's working as it should. I wanted to enhance it by knowing who made the update that triggered the bot: how do I detect the user that made the update to trigger the bot?

I tried using USEREMAIL() in the PROCESS step but it was undefined.  Do I have to add a "last updated by" field to my table to store USEREMAIL()? I wanted to avoid adding a field when it's something the system should be able to tell me.

@dbaum thanks for responding - I went to get some screenshots to explain the situation and, unbelievably, I noticed I had forgotten to to click the SAVE button in AppSheet - after I saved and synced it worked /facepalm.
